As part of the Quality Agreements 2019-2024, the Gerrit Rietveld Academie will focus in the coming years on strengthening the position of the individual student in his/her/them personal well-being and resilience as a basic condition for studying. To shape this Quality Agreement, a Student Support working group (including lecturers, students, counselor, representatives of Student Council and Unsettling) was launched in September 2019. Together we work on an action plan for the coming years.
The outbreak of Covid-19 and all measures that have been put in motion are generating a new dynamic, as well as a new support demand. The Student Support working group has adapted its original plan to provide additional support in the coming period in the form of the following projects:
Are you coming from the biggest part of the world? For all Sandberg and Rietveld students coming from outside Europe

The Group Crit is inter-departmental critic sessions in which a maximum of 3 students would have a maximum 1 hour for a feedback/crit session, lead by the participating students. Coordinator student support will be present during the session as an invisible guide. The whole group will stay under a total of 12 students, either from Rietveld or Sandberg. The crit host starts the day with introducing three students who are going to present their works, continued by their presentation and a discussion.
An online ‘living-room’ looking to fuse the physical space with the remote, for the student community, created by Angelo Custodio and Pedro Matias. The livingROOM is a third space for and with students to exchange and inhabit remotely, simultaneously or asynchronously; a shared electronic social space, that allows remote participants to engage in social relations with one another at a distance. The livingROOM takes place on June 12 and July 3 and is open to all students of the Rietveld Academie and Sandberg Instituut.
